Автор: Andrew Knapp, Hilary Footitt Название: Liberal Democracies at War: Conflict and Representation ISBN: 1441156054 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781441156051 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 28500.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание:
Liberal democracies have always accepted the need to go to war, despite the fact that war can undermine liberal values. Wars may be won or lost, not only on the battlefield, but in the perceptions of the publics who pay for them. Presentation is therefore increasingly important.
Starting with the First World War, the first major war fought by liberal democracies after the emergence on mass media, Liberal Democracies at War explores the relationship between representations of liberal violence and the ways in which the liberal state understands 'rights' in war. Experts in the field explore crucial questions such as: - How have the violences of war perpetrated in their names been communicated to publics of liberal democracies? - How have representations of conflict changed over time? - How far have the victims of liberal wars been able to insert their stories into the record?

This collection of ten facsimile titles, chosen from our imprints Pinter, Mansell and Continuum, covers a broad variety of themes that confronted Europe throughout the turbulent twentieth century, focusing on European politics abroad as much as on inter-European political changes and challenges. The titles in this set examine the development of Britain from Empire to Commonwealth, paying particular attention to the inter- and post-war years, the emergence of the European Union and the struggles faced by former Soviet states in the 1990s. They also pick up on two of the leitmotifs of the 20th century: the quest for sovereignty and the rise and fall (and rise) of extreme right ideas and politics.

The three titles in this set, chosen from our imprints The Athlone Press and Pinter, go beyond the history and politics of the 20th century and consider the value of looking at politics and history using data from other disciplines to inform an understanding of large-scale global transformations. Drawing on anthropology, archaeology, economics and philosophy - to name a few - these titles help to highlight that the study of history and politics should never be considered in a vacuum but in relation to other subjects.

Автор: Alessio Patalano Название: Post-war Japan as a Sea Power: Imperial Legacy, Wartime Experience and the Making of a Navy ISBN: 1350011088 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781350011083 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 40120.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: In Post-war Japan as a Sea Power, Alessio Patalano incorporates new, exclusive source material to develop an innovative approach to the study of post-war Japan as a military power. This archival-based history of Asia's most advanced navy, the Japanese Maritime Self-Defence Force (JMSDF), looks beyond the traditional perspective of viewing the modern Japanese military in light of the country's alliance with the US. The book places the institution in a historical context, analysing its imperial legacy and the role of Japan's shattering defeat in WWII in the post-war emergence of Japan as East Asia’s ‘sea power’.
